The interview might have been a little behind schedule but it managed to flow smoothly.
They both made the atmosphere so approachable.
There is no right or wrong answer, just a time to get to know our reasons, expectations, limitations, preparations and of course, our prayer requests.
This interview was not only out of formality,
it was also important as a reinforcement to each of us that we are all accountable to God, His people (our church and the people in Manila) and our teammates when we go on this mission.
It is a mission where we youth can gain experience and exposure,
but it is also "Putting yourself in the front line," as Bro. Voon Horn said.
"And that requires the Armor of God and the Sword of the Spirit," Sis. Suat Lian ensures.
Personally, I feel that this interview was essential.
We may have our own thoughts and reasons, for this mission to Manila, all figured out in our heads
But having the chance to share it out made those things even clearer,
And hopefully making our commitment towards our preparation and voyage even stronger.
You know... more black and white, more ascertained...
I may not know what was said or heard in each interview
But I do hope that even through an interview,
God has assured us the glorious plan He has in stored for each of our lives
"For even a long, dangerous journey can be faced confidently when God is leading the expedition."
Signing off, Xinn.
Signing off, Xinn.
P.S I'm having trouble attaching our preparation schedule to this post. Will continue to figure it out.

Matthew 10:16
I am sending you out like a sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves
Proverbs 12:18
Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.
Proverbs 25:17
Seldom set foot in your neighbour's house - too much of you, and he will hate you.
Proverbs 27:14
If a man loudly blesses his neighbor early in the morning, it will be taken as a curse.
1 Corinthians 9:20-23
To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God's law but am under Christ's law), so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all possible means I might save some. I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.
Titus 2:10
and not to steal from them, but to show that they can be fully trusted , so that in every way they will make the teaching about God our Saviour attractive.
1 Peter 3:15-16
But in your hearts set apart Chirst as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behaviour in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.
2 Timothy 2:23-26
Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels. And the Lord's servant must not quarrel; instead, he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. Those who oppose him he must gently instruct, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth, and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.
